I was able to get a couple of quick shots of this guy yesterday. I had to sit in the kitchen sink in order to get a good view of him! :D

    Nice catch. They are very handsome. Did you offer up a starling for it? mwink.gif

    Thank you Maestro! I wish I had a starling to offer up. He's been taking my quail instead! :cry

    Beautiful bird. Great capture, I like the show of feathers in the first shot.

    Very nice shots.. you're lucky you noticed him.. they're usually in and out in a flash. Especially if they don't get something on the first pass.

    Thank you PrescottPhotog! They usually are in and out very fast. He's been terrorizing my yard for the past couple days.
